The Best Ski Jackets and Pants for 2026
Oct 1, 2025
Armada
Armada’s premier backcountry offering, the Haydon jacket and Coveted bib are three-layer shells, built with the new environmentally friendly Gore-Tex material to keep you dry. Though it is a backcountry kit, it does stay true to Armada’s standard steeze, so expect a relaxed fit.Â
Designed to be as functional as it is comfortable, the jacket features two large chest pockets and pit vents to dump excess heat when you’re working your way up steeper skin tracks. The bib has all of the features you want and need: two generous vents on the interior and exterior of each leg, dual-side seam drop seat, four large pockets on the chest and thighs and a D-ring attachment for a snowmobile tether. Whether you’re setting out on foot or jumping on your snow machine, this kit has you covered.
